"The AG3-605-UR21, costing $999.99, obviously isn't quite so meaty. It's packed with an Intel Core i5-4430 quad-core processor clocked at 3 GHz, 8 GB of DDR3 RAM (32 GB max spanning two slots), [[[a GeForce GTX 660 with 1.5 TB of VRAM]]]"

That's a hell lot of VRAM

Haha 1.5 TB of VRAM...

Still with the shittiest powersuppy and mobo they could fit in there

 

[bustapr]

though it is sort of overpriced, it is still its bit cheaper than its competition. other OEMs would charge around $1500 for this same pc. Id still rather build my own pc for much less.

"1.5TB of VRAM..."
Say, where can i acquire one of these graphics cards that you speak of...

I remember when acer predators first launched liquid cooling everywhere core 2 quad extreme cpu,Liquid cooled ram,pre over clocked, top of the line graphics and a bad ass case you really could not get anywere else,The case alone I felt was a reason to buy one. Now they just take a normal case with crap air flow a standard i5 or i7 and inflate the price. Come on acer teh hell happened cut it out 🙁.

 

[burritobob]

Wow a whole terabyte and a half of VRAM

Methinks one has to buy the whole system, as it is obviously an OEM-only part 😀

I don't get why the prebuilts require you to have a ton of ram when all you want is a better graphics card. Most people won't use all that ram. It's odd for something marketed as a gaming machine and not a workstation.

 

[velosteraptor]

When i think Multimedia, i think music and movies. And yet these dont even have a blu ray drive..

i think the vram is what makes 99.9% of the cost and it wouldnt be sold if sold separately so acer is marketing the graphics card for them. :lol:
